I first heard The Carpenters in 1971 when we went had dinner at my father's best friend from school. My dad's friend played the "Close To You" album for us and commented that they are both millionaires already. My dad didn't seem to be interested. I recognized the two hits but I, like Boat2Sail, initially didn't recognize the magic. In 1971 I was visiting with a school friend of mine and he played the "Superstar" single for me and of course I knew the song. But then he played the b-side "Bless The Beasts And Children" that's when I was hooked. That song was just so marvelous. A few months later I purchased the "A Song For You" album.
